Abstract

We have selectively fabricated carbon nanotubes (CNTs) emitter arrays with a micro mold in capillary (MIMIC) assisted process. The electron emitter growth site was fabricated by resist patterning using the MIMIC process. The pattern was uniformly transferred to the substrate and well aligned CNTs were grown. The emitter produces a turn-on field of 2.7 V/μm with a field emission current of 10 μA/cm2. The electron emission current can be controlled by emitter pattern width and pitch variation.
